''Who is Duncan? Let him come
accredited if he desires controversy
with mef' Mr.. Duncan goes with
his clerical credentials, under the
special resolution adopted at con
ference pledging preachers to this
work. and with a commission from

A letter from a CITIZEN subscri-
Der III Parker county, Texas, begs

do them great favor, for there
are good people here who are living
on weeds boiled in salt aoater" What
a sad picture he draws! Giles has

Read Mr.. Patterson's ad. in the
local column this week. He says
that be regrets leaving Pulaski
even for q short time, but Is CON-
PEELED to on account of dull bust

liberal patronage that be cannot

Either that, or the road made more
direct around the creek, they are
entitled to. Commissioners will ex-
anime the cost and report in July.

It's editorial columns. We advise
people TO take it in the nature of
lpecac. If a democrat has the least
leaning towards anything republi-
can it will make him thrown it up.
